Bachelor of Business Administration in Business Honors

The BBA in Business Honors degree is available only to students admitted to Mays Business Honors.  Business Honors is both a program and a major; students apply during their senior year of high school for admission as an incoming freshman or during the spring of their freshman year to enter the program as a sophomore.  The business honors major prepares students to begin careers in all fields of business or to continue on to a graduate program or professional school.

In addition to taking core business classes, students may design their own customized study of business or work concurrently on earning a double major with one of our other BBA degree plans (accounting, finance, marketing, management, management of information systems, or supply chain management). Students may also earn minors and take advantage of a wide variety of certificate programs.  Business honors majors work closely with an academic advisor to identify a set of courses to meet their academic goals.

Business Honors combines the advantages of a small classroom learning environment with the resources of a large university.  It is designed for successful and motivated students who wish to pursue academic course work that challenges their interest and abilities.  The program brings together inquisitive students and enthusiastic, top-notch faculty in a setting which encourages initiative, creativity, and independent thinking.  The curriculum provides course work in all of the business disciplines offered at Mays and students are able to explore the subject matter in greater depth than in non-honors classes.  All students in the program complete an experiential learning opportunity such as an internship, study abroad, or reciprocal exchange.

In addition, students in the program participate in leadership and personal and professional development events.  They are able to learn from top business leaders, participate in visits to leading businesses, attend conferences, and complete community service projects.
